Large soundstage at 2 ft distance?

Sorry. I mean Reveal 6 I suppose?

Mirage OMD-15 or OS3-Sat. You will get an enormous, deep, well-defined soundstage under the conditions you describe, with a dynamic range and power handling you'd never expect.

The Omd-15 looks like a killer little speaker. A bit too much $$ though. Would the OS-3 be that much of a step down?

You mean the OMD-5, right? (The OMD-15 is a floorstander.)

Would you give up a whole lot with the OS3-Sat? Probably not. The OMD-5 has just a little more bass extension owing to a slightly bigger driver and cabinet. Their sensitivities are nearly the same and amp range is 10-175 for the OMD-5 and 10-150 for the OS3-Sat. Can't get much closer than that.

Both speakers use the same tweeter and the mid/woofer is identical in construction and materials except for the diameter. At your very short listening distance the OS3-Sat should be just fine. Both can fill a room surprisingly well, especially with a sub.

lol the 15 link goes to 5 so yes the 5 is what I was referring to. Hmm. The OS-3 is decently priced at several places. They will do. I can't think of another type of speaker that could image well at that close proximity.
